Going away on holiday should be a time<br />
of fun and relaxation and be as stress-free<br />
as possible. The last thing you want to hear<br />
is that your home has been robbed. Here<br />
are some tips to reduce that likelihood.<br />
• Make sure your home looks<br />
occupied. This means having your<br />
letter box cleared and not piling up,<br />
lawns mowed regularly, rubbish bins<br />
returned after being emptied, a car<br />
in the driveway if possible and lights<br />
on at night. However, don’t make it<br />
obvious that the lights are on a timer.<br />
Stop any regular or online deliveries<br />
while you are away. Have someone<br />
open and close curtains and park<br />
their car in your driveway. The<br />
ultimate security measure would be<br />
to have a trusted house<br />
sitter.<br />
• Remember to lock up<br />
your property, including<br />
all windows, doors,<br />
sheds, and garages. Use<br />
deadbolts if they are<br />
fitted, and fit a blocking<br />
bar to sliding doors to<br />
prevent entry. Ensure all<br />
tools are locked away so<br />
they can’t be used to aid<br />
entry.<br />
• Reduce the risk of being<br />
burgled by having an<br />
alarm system. Even<br />
while away, you can<br />
monitor your property<br />
in real-time. There are<br />
many cost-effective<br />
and easy-to-install<br />
smart alarm systems<br />
on the market. They<br />
can include doorbell<br />
cameras, security<br />
cameras, motion<br />
detectors and voice<br />
commands.<br />
• Avoid the temptation to<br />
let everyone know on<br />
social media or while<br />
you’re out in public that<br />
you will be absent from<br />
your home. Plenty of<br />
crooked people are on<br />
the lookout for that type<br />
of information. Wait<br />

Safeguard your home during the holidays<br />
until you return to post photos and<br />
videos of your trip away.<br />
• Get to know your neighbours and<br />
your community. Let them know<br />
you’ll be away and ask them to<br />
keep an eye on your property or<br />
invite them to park their car in your<br />
driveway.<br />
• If someone does break into your<br />
home, don’t make things easy for<br />
them. Hide all your valuables,<br />
computers, devices, jewellery,<br />
and confidential and financial<br />
documents. Having a fitted safe and<br />
using it can give you peace of mind.<br />
• Lastly, ensure your house and<br />
contents insurance covers are up to<br />
date and appropriate for your needs.<br />
